      @Aleksey I didn't even know converters existed! That's so cool!

      I tried something like this a long time ago but the only refillable brush pens I could find (pre easy online ordering) were like 15 bucks a pop :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes:

      Well prepared for inktober!

        @Braden-Hallett yeah gouletpens.com sells a really nice standard international one for fountain pens. I ordered a cheap “jinhao” fountain pen and im going to try and replace the nib with a manga G pen nib and another one with a nice vintage nib. They both seem to be the same size so they should fit. I’ll keep you posted!

          Here is Friday's: Back to digital. I changed the pixel count to 1200 and size to 11 x 14 but then I have a time delay on the thick strokes. It makes them all wobbly and wonky. Hatching becomes almost impossible. Does anyone else have that issue or is that an issue with my surface book?

              @Aleksey What would be the difference between this and a waterbrush that you use to do portable watercolor painting? (By the way, I like your Winsor Newton pocket set. I have one that I use all the time, though I changed the pans.)

                  @demotlj so good! I get a more consistent wash and dont need to dip my water brush into anything. Although I have one of those brushes too and they are really fun too

                      @chrisaakins ohh i see. Ive seen these issues on different brands of art displays before. I dont know if it’s common on surface though but it looks the same as the issues huion tablets have.

                        Do you mean 1200 pixels per inch? So 13200 pixels high? Or 1200 pixels on one side total?

                            @chrisaakins Well there's yer problum 😉

                            I'd work at a resolution of 300 pixels per inch. 600 at most if you're working on a comic and want the super crispest of inks. I work on comics at 300.

                            My practice lines are on a smaller canvas (8.5 x 5.5 at 300) so I can fit the whole thing on the screen (I zoom out to about 55% which shows the document at print size for the number of pixels per inch my screen has)
